Chiyo's mansion is not large, it used to be an oasis in the village of Sand Hide, but after many years of transitional acquisition, the area of the oasis has become much smaller, just enough to be surrounded by a wall, and become the Chiyo tribe's own land.

After the death of Scorpion's parents, Chiyo moved out of this sad place with the young Scorpion, and the mother-in-law and grandson lived alone, and now they have moved back here with the disappearance of Scorpion.

It's like another reincarnation in the dark.

Hoshino Mu followed the cuttlefish roe all the way and also observed this mansion, the yard is not big, but it is full of greenery, and the outside is like two worlds, all kinds of fire country thunder country, and even the flowers and trees in the farther place can be seen, only three or two followers serve, but Hoshino Mu is extremely sensitive to Chakra's perception, and the thick Chakra is also excellent in the upper ninja, and there are several secretly vigilant ninja eyes patrolling him.

The courtyard was covered with elaborate light blue chakra lines for guarding, and he had never seen what the security measures of the Kazekage Building were, but it probably wouldn't have been better.

"If you have a forbearance, put it here."

The last step to meet Chiyo was to disarm the weapon, and the cuttlefish roe had already told Hoshino Maki before, so Hoshino Maki also knew what to do, so he did not bring his ninja gear, and after a search, he entered the gate that was pushed open by two waiters.

"Come with me, Chiyo-sama, please."

The cuttlefish roe had already been handed in the invitation, so there were already people waiting here.

Led by the maid, the two walked down the stairs to an underground pond.

The pond is not big, but in the boundary of the Land of Winds, in the village of Iwakuin, having a pool of water can already explain a lot.

But what really made Hoshino Maki feel the power in front of him was the grass and vegetation around the pond.

There are only two possibilities for the green to drip without the sun shining, either Chiyo has mastered the ninjutsu of inducing or restoring the vitality of the plant, or the green plant changes frequently.

Either way, it declares that the strength of the owner of this place is extraordinary.

Under the shade of a tree by the pond, two old men in coarse cloth were fishing with their eyes closed.

The three of them didn't speak, they stood not far away and waited quietly, only the sound of water dripping from the top of the rock.

"Hmm-"

Granny Chiyo suddenly covered her chest, the fishing rod fell off her palm weakly, and she curled up and fell to the side with a painful face.

"Chiyo-sama!" X2

"Sister!"

The waiter, the cuttlefish roe, and Ebizo were shocked and immediately rushed forward.

"Liar! Haha"

When they stepped forward, Granny Chiyo suddenly jumped up and grinned in a strange tone.

"Sister, if you do this again, you will soon be in charge of my funeral."

Ebizo stroked his chest and said helplessly.

Cuttlefish Roe and the waiter stood there awkwardly halfway through, helpless.

"Little cuttlefish~ long time no see."

Chiyo greeted cuttlefish roe casually as if nothing had happened before, but his eyes looked through the two of them, looking at Hoshino Maki who had been standing in place with a calm face.

"Boy, don't you care about my mother-in-law's safety?"

"Your chakra is strong and powerful, and its vitality is stronger than that of Lord Squid Roe, so I don't think there's anything wrong with you."

Hoshino Mu said in a flat tone.

Squid Roe glanced back at the boy, who felt very different from when he was in the hospital.

Cold, confident, kind of like... Scorpion?

For some reason, the red-haired, indifferent face super genius came to the mind of the cuttlefish.

Also, even if you say that Chiyo-sama is vigorous, what do you mean by comparing me?!

Do you dare to offend a thirty-year-old single woman!

Not mentioning the inner activities of cuttlefish roe, Chiyo looked at the young man in front of him and laughed strangely: "Little cuttlefish said that there is a medical genius in the village who can compare to Tsunade's stupid woman, is that you?" ”

"Sister, you're scolding Tsunade again..."

"Am I wrong about what I said, wasting chakra on appearances is just a superficial idiot!"

Hoshino Mu listened to the conversation between the two in front of him, and he was a little more sure of what he was going to say next.

"Boy, cuttlefish roe said that you are very talented, please let me teach you medical ninjutsu, you save this fish first, let me see your level."

When the noise ended, Granny Chiyo picked up a live fresh fish from the fish bucket next to her and threw it to him.

Hoshino caught the fish, but when it came to him, the fish was motionless, its lips were spurting, and it looked half-dead.

Poison!

Hoshino Mu frowned slightly, feeling that the palm of his hand holding the fish also felt tingling.

Seeing this, Granny Chiyo smiled and said, "When you take something from a stranger, wrap your palm in a chakra, this is the first lesson you have to learn." Also, when listening to the ninja, you should protect your ears with chakra, otherwise you may be hypnotized, which is the first... Hey? Are you alright?! ”

Chiyo looked at the clear eyes of the young man in front of him with some surprise.

"What about the third lesson?"

With that, Hoshino Makaki threw the fish back into the pond, and the fish that was still dying just now was planted in the water, and its tail slapped a few splashes vigorously, swam around twice, and dived into the depths of the pond.

"Interesting."

Chiyo was stunned for a moment, and his dry hands clapped vigorously.

"Your use of chakra is indeed excellent, but a medical ninja is not enough to heal the sick and save people, and you can't be a burden in the mission. Qianhua, you and this kid have a discussion. ”

"Yes."

The waitress who led the way just now nodded respectfully, and then came to the opposite side of Hoshino Mu, and with a turn of momentum, she put on a posture ready for battle.

Let a sixteen-year-old boy go and fight against Shangnin, are you doing personnel?

Hoshino Mu understood that the other party was going to give him a dismissal.

Shayin Village is a village that values traditions, the most important of which is respect for the elderly.

In the eyes of the traditional people of Sand Hidden Village, Hoshino Maki's previous behavior had offended Chiyo-sama, and Chika, as a waiter, also wanted to take this opportunity to teach this arrogant boy a good lesson.

Hoshino Mu nodded, and the two sides stood opposite each other and saluted each other.

But at the moment when the thousand flowers saluted, he felt a strong wind coming, and when he reacted, Hoshino Mu had already stepped forward, his right hand condensed a majestic chakra, his chest was completely stretched, and the meridians of his right arm bulged out like several green dragon pillars ready to go, and the entire fist condensed a massive amount of chakra, as if it was wrapped in light blue fire.

So fast!

didn't have time to accuse the other party of not speaking of martial virtues, Qianhua hurriedly crossed her arms, trying to block the heavy punch.

Boom ——!

The figure of a thousand flowers flashed, like a cannonball that burst out of the chamber, directly embedded in the rock wall, and the whole cave shook for it, and the rubble fell with a clatter, hitting the pond and causing ripples.

Cuttlefish roe instinctively took two steps back, and his mouth opened round. I thought that the other party just had a medical talent comparable to Tsunade, but I didn't expect that he also had the demeanor of the other party in terms of force.

Ebizo also felt the same way at this time, but what flashed in his mind was another figure, a figure that he hadn't seen for a long time.

It was a man who made him frightened even when he had seen the wind and waves.

The fishing rod in his hand fell to the surface of the water at some point, but no one paid attention, and the focus of the audience's eyes was on the young man who slowly closed his fist.

"Ahem."

Chika fell from the stone wall and fell to one knee, spitting out a stream of blood from her mouth.

There is still a 'big' depression in the rock wall behind him.

Arm, broken.

"Concession."

"You... Vile! ”

Qianhua said angrily, getting up and fighting again.

"Okay Qianhua, it's you who lose. Staying in the mansion for too long will make you lose your basic vigilance as a ninja, so go to the front line and train out. ”

Granny Chiyo shook her head to stop Chika, and then looked at Hoshino Maki a little strangely: "Strange power?" You're really like Tsunade. ”

Saying that, Chiyo's mother-in-law's face is a little weird, if she teaches a 'Tsunade' who is stronger than Tsunade, will that superficial stupid woman's expression be funny?

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but look up and laugh.

"You think I'm the next Tsunade?"

Hoshino Maki didn't have the ability to read minds, but combined with his performance just now and the other party's sudden laughter, he also guessed a few points of Chiyo's thoughts.

Without waiting for Chiyo to speak, Hoshino Maki spoke, "But I want to be the next stone statue of the Council of Elders." ”

In the elders' meeting room, there are three stone statues behind the chief elder's seat, and like Yan Yan of Konoha, they are the three wind shadows of Sand Hidden Village.

As soon as these words came out, the scene seemed to be silenced by the group.

It's good for young people to have ambition, but they need to match their ambition.

Not to mention that he now has the qualifications to become Tsunade, even if he is Tsunade, Kazekage's position will not be able to sit.

Without him, too young.

Luo Sha is still questioned because of his age and is not enough to bear the burden of the Wind Shadow, how dare you think at your age?

And judging by what he means, he wants to compete for the position of the fourth generation of Wind Shadow, which is even more fantastical.

It's hard to imagine even in the more enlightened Konoha, let alone the traditional and old-fashioned village of Sand Hide.

At this age, unless you are reincarnated among the Thousand Hands Pillar, it is absolutely impossible.

Chiyo's good mood was also ruined by his words, and his evaluation of him couldn't help but decrease a little, slowly put away the smile on his face, and said lightly: "It's a good thing that young people have ambitions, but they still need to be tempered. ”

Hoshino did not reply immediately this time, but took two steps forward and walked to the opposite side of Chiyo's mother-in-law. Chika wanted to step forward to stop her, but Chiyo's mother-in-law stopped the other party with her eyes, and she also wanted to hear what the other party could say to move her.

Chiyo understands that the boy in front of her wants her to support her as a Kazekage, but why?

Not to mention that he is not qualified now, even if he is qualified, Chiyo does not intend to get involved in these rights and wrongs again.

She'd lived long enough to see too much right and wrong, and now, nothing could impress her.

Hoshino Mu sat cross-legged, his mouth opened and closed, Chiyo's expression changed from shock to excitement, and then he made a gesture to get up, stumbling over the fish bucket, and he didn't care if all the fish he had been fishing for a long time ran away, and then he stood up and stood up in a certain shape, and he couldn't help but say something, and took a deep breath and said, "You come with me, and the others are in place." Ebizo, so do you. ”

Hoshino Mu just used Chakra's secret words, and the others knew that they didn't dare to eavesdrop on the conversation between the two.

But Hoshino Maki still chose to turn his back on Chika and Miho, because experienced ninjas could read the conversation according to each other's mouth shapes, and he didn't know if the two had mastered this skill.

Hoshino Maki believes that both cuttlefish roe and Chika are close associates of Chiyo's mother-in-law, but Chiyo may not want too many people to know this kind of news.

It's just that Hoshino Muki didn't expect, halfway through the words, Chiyo's mother-in-law stopped him, and she didn't even let Ebizo listen, which shows how cautious and important Chiyo is about the scorpion.

That's right, Hoshino Maki is just going to play the scorpion card.

Hoshino Mu followed Chiyo to an inconspicuous room, the two sat opposite each other, Chiyo did not have the madness on his face just now, and said with a serious expression: "There is a special enchantment here, you can say it." ”

Chiyo's words have two meanings: one is that the barrier here can isolate the monitoring, and the other is that if you don't make it clear, I'm afraid you won't be able to get out of this room today.

Hoshino Mu didn't care, he made himself a cup of tea, gently exhaled and blew away the warmth of the tea soup, took a sip, and praised: "Good tea." ”

Chiyo on the other side had a cold face and stared straight at him.

"I know where Kazekage-sama is."

A sentence like thunder exploded in Chiyo's ears.

"How would you know?!"

Chiyo leaned forward and said with some excitement.

She mobilized the whole village to find it, and this kid actually said that he knew the whereabouts of the three generations.

"Who are you?"

Chiyo now feels that the young man in front of him may not be just a genius, will there be some interest groups in the country of wind behind him, or the forces of other countries secretly supporting, intending to seek power and usurp the throne, and even subvert the Sand Hidden Village.

Could the disappearance of the Wind Shadow be their work as well?

Faintly, Chiyo felt that the village of Sand Hidden was in an unprecedented crisis, and there was a bit of murder in his eyes when he looked at Hoshino Mu.

Seeing that the other party seemed to have suddenly changed into a person, Hoshino Maki carefully recalled the previous conversation and understood the ambiguity.

He put down the teacup, looked directly at Chiyo, and said in a solemn tone: "I am Hoshino Mu from Sand Hidden Village, and I am now and will be in the future. The interests of the village are also mine, and if I have anyone to support them, there is no need to alarm you with those ridiculous-sounding words. ”

The two looked at each other for a long time, and finally, Chiyo slowly spoke: "If one day I find out that you have done something to harm the village, I will definitely kill you." ”

In Chiyo's heart, the scorpion is the meat of her heart, and so is the Sand Hidden Village.

It was built from scratch with her participation in it, and it was full of her life's work.

"I won't let you down."

Chiyo nodded, and suddenly felt that something was wrong, how could it be as if he was supporting him to be the wind shadow?

"Ahem, let's talk about the scorpion first, where is he."

Chiyo hurriedly poured herself a cup of tea and diverted the topic.

Hoshino Mu was silent for a moment: "I have something to tell you first, Kazekage-sama is with Scorpion, he... Turned into a puppet. ”

Smack——!

The teacup fell on the coffee table and rolled a few times, and the hot tea soup spilled on the back of Chiyo's hand, but she didn't seem to feel it, and the whole person was like a stone sculpture.

Puppet, Kazekage, missing.

Chiyo is not stupid, Hoshino Mu has guessed the facts in one sentence.

It's like when Scorpion was a kid and made his best playmate a puppet, but this time, Scorpion set his sights on Kazekage.

But because of this, she doesn't know what to do now.

Hoshino didn't say anything more, giving her time to digest the amazing news.

After drinking three cups of tea, Chiyo on the opposite side finally reacted.

I saw that her eyes were red, and her voice was hoarse as if she had been burned by a rolling iron: "Tell me, tell me the location of the scorpion." ”

Village, Scorpion, the old man has already made his choice.

"What do you want to do, kill the scorpion? With all due respect, you're no match for the Scorpion with the Wind Shadow Golem. ”

Without waiting for Chiyo to speak, Hoshino Mu seemed to have insight into her thoughts and interrupted: "I know that there are still tribes, and you also have the will to die without returning, but even if you kill the scorpion, is there any point?"

You know the strength of the scorpion better than anyone else, how many people must be sacrificed to kill him?

Kazekage is dead, and once you and your clan are also hit hard, the opposition within the village will not let go of this great opportunity, and the ninja village outside is bound to be eyeing the tide, who do you think can turn the tide?

Rissa?

Still don't know where the human pillar force container is? ”

Chiyo was speechless when he asked Combo repeatedly.

It's not that she doesn't know this, but who will clean up the catastrophe caused by her grandson?

She naturally understands the strength of the scorpion, and she is ready to die together, but unfortunately, the ninjutsu that condenses her life's work may not have a chance to use it...

Thinking of the scorpion embraced by the puppet of the 'parents', the epiphany smile on the child's face is an eternal pain for Chiyo.

It would have been nice if he had stopped them from going to Konoha in the first place.

"If it's as you say, I'll kill the scorpion as the best solution."

Chiyo's eyes were downcast, it had drained her spirit to make up her mind to kill her grandson, and now she just wanted to quickly find out the whereabouts of the scorpion, and then put an end to all the damn things.

"I can bring the scorpion back alive."

Chiyo suddenly raised his head, glanced at him Hoshino Mu in surprise, and immediately laughed: "You overestimate my mother-in-law's strength, even if you bring the scorpion back, I don't have the ability to let you be the wind shadow." ”

It's true that Chiyo is the most influential person in the village, but Sand Hidden Village is not her word, and the fourth generation of Kazekage is not her alone.

To Chiyo's surprise, Hoshino Maki shook his head: "I don't ask you to support me as Kazekage, but I want to be the commander-in-chief of the medical ninjas of the frontline troops this time, and... Don't send Risa to the front. ”

This quid pro quo was not what Chiyo expected.

Both of these points are not difficult for Chiyo, and they can even be said to be very simple.

Originally, the medical department was Chiyo's private place, and the cuttlefish roe was the eyeliner she planted in the presbyterian church. Although she is no longer in the Council of Elders, she can still grasp the general movements of the high-level leaders of Shayin Village, as long as she pushes the boat down the river and expresses her hope that Luo Sha will stay in the village to guard the tea kettle at the end of the seal, Orange Juro's side will definitely take action.

Righteousness and rights are enough to make Luo Sha unable to leave the village.

But what does this kid want?

Although the time spent together was short, Chiyo could already see that this guy had a deep meaning in every step, and she didn't believe that the position of the chief commander of the medical ninja could make this guy a kazekage.

This guy has a plan.

Chiyo was sure, but she couldn't refuse the deal.

If you don't hurt the village, you can still let the scorpion survive, which is really the best outcome.

Moreover, if the kid in front of her can't fulfill her promise, she can pull the other party down as much as she lifts it up.

"When are you going to bring the scorpion over?"

There was another moment of silence, and she let out a hoarse voice.

"Two years. You know the temper of the scorpion, without the corresponding strength, we don't even have a chance to talk. ”

Chiyo nodded, picked up the teacup that had cooled down on the table with her right hand, and made herself a cup of tea.

Hoshino Maki got up and said goodbye with interest, and was about to hold the doorknob when Chiyo's words came: "I can behave more in the hospital recently." ”

"Yes."

Hoshino pulled the door open, a kind smile reappearing on his face.
